I tried paying at a restaurant with stock options. It didn't work.

It's a lot easier to figure out how to scale something that doesn't feel like it would scale than it is to figure out what is actually gonna work. You're much better off going after something that will work that doesn't scale, then trying to figure how to scale it up, than you are trying to figure it all out.

With a lot of the things that seem scalable, you will find bottlenecks you never imagined that you suddenly need to find solutions for.
